The greatest Niger fan you can find - this blond Scandinavian cannot think of a better way to live her life than working for Eden Foundation in the Tanout zone. This blog is about living life as an unpaid volunteer, trying to make the best out of every day (sometimes possible, sometimes not) while helping the people of the least developed area of the least developed country in the world achieve a sustainable life.

If you're wondering why I'm such an irregular blogger nowadays...

It's because the Internet connection this year is so slow. I'm having trouble uploading my pictures, and without pictures, they're little point for me to blog, right? I could bore you all with poetry and random thoughts but I don't think you'd be half as interested in that as in pictures of life in all its beauty in the least developed country in the world!

In the meantime however, while I in a very Nigerien manner await for things to get fixed by themselves, I'll leave you with this pleasant little bugger - compliments from Eden's field station!

Hi. It's Rachel again, I am not sure the best way to contact you, as I am not that familiar with blogs. But if I don't get a post back from you I will assume it is OK to use one of your pictures on our newsletter. I work for a non-profit that fights against human trafficking. Have a wonderful day. Thanks, Rachel.
